INGREDIENTS
5 oz Lean Ground Turkey (142g)
1/3 cup Cooked Quinoa (58g)
1 medium Bell Pepper (119g)
1/4 cup Tomato Sauce (62g)
1/4 cup chopped Onion (40g)
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
1 tbsp Feta Cheese (15g)
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Prepare the quinoa if not already cooked according to package instructions.
Cut the top off the bell pepper and remove seeds and membranes. Set aside.
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until translucent.
Add the ground turkey to the skillet. Cook until it’s browned and fully cooked, breaking it up as it cooks.
Stir in the cooked quinoa and tomato sauce, mixing thoroughly to combine all ingredients. Allow the mixture to heat through for a couple of minutes, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Spoon the turkey and quinoa mixture into the hollowed-out bell pepper, packing it in generously.
Place the stuffed bell pepper in a baking dish and cover loosely with foil. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes.
After baking, remove the foil, sprinkle feta cheese on top, and return to the oven uncovered for an additional 5 minutes to slightly melt the feta.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
